Prayers to the son.


I always preferred Franklin Graham to his father, Billy.

Billy never connected to me, wheras Franklin is more of a straight-talker.

Me, too.

Here's an interesting interview of Franklin Graham on PBS...

FRANKLIN GRAHAM ON ISLAM

...Many people after 9/11 said that "The Muslims, they worship the same god we do, they just have their way to God. Christians have their way to God. But it's the same God." No, it's not. Now they recognize Jesus, but they don't recognize his deity. They've even taken excerpts out of the Old Testament and New Testament, and thrown it into the Qur'an, to sprinkle a few Bible verses throughout to give it validity. But the Qur'an is not the word of God. The Holy Bible is God's word.

This whole notion of tolerance. They say, "Well, you Christians are narrow-minded. You say Jesus is the only way. You're not tolerant of other religions." Well, the other religions are not tolerant of us. I'm not putting down their faith system; it's just not what I believe. And I don't accept their way as truth. They don't accept my way. That's fine. But don't ask me to believe that their way to God is a valid way. I don't believe that...
